It's no secret that I love soups. I like to think of them as my "cold day smoothie" - a little boost of warmth and nutrients in my day. This healthy and easy vegetable soup recipe is just it!
It's Sunday evening while I am typing this and if you are wondering how to get through the long week ahead, then you might need a bowl of something home cooked such as this soup and an early night.
This healthy and easy vegetable soup recipe is filled with carrots, leeks, celery, spinach, peas and beans. You can pack it full of garlic, herbs, spices and even squeeze in lemon juice to serve. If you don't have beans, add in some potatoes instead.
Here is the healthy and easy vegetable soup recipe
